Pingo, Your Facebook Friend
You can’t be on Facebook all the time, but that doesn’t mean you can’t always know what’s happening. Pingo, Your Facebook Friend ($138) is a cute little penguin-like robot that roams your desk and keeps you in the loop about all the goings on around the Internet. Have him read new Facebook messages, news, weather, or stock market reports at your command. Send him gifts from your Facebook account to keep him happy, and even interact with him in real life with little taps and shakes. Proximity sensors let him follow your fingers around, and also keep him from zooming off the edge of your desk since, as with all penguins, he can’t fly, but he does sing and dance!
